Peppers are going hard right now. I need to figure out how to make Dona style salsa out of serranos, but I’m not sure they have enough meat on them. My first try was straight trash. Also starting to get some figs.

There’s an exception to every rule and I do have a good friend who was at UCLA the same time as me. Hit me up if you want my thoughts about fishing Alaska with your boy. I have many thoughts on how to do it well instead of like every other sucker from the southern states.

Sadly, Kings just shut down for non-residents for the entirety of Southeast. Halibut is 1 per day in a slot for charters and no retention Wednesdays except for the far northern edge of southeast that gets regulated with Yakutat and is a little better. Silver/Coho is going to be solid from what I saw in outside waters in late June.

I don’t think I’ve bought one of these in a couple of years so it was an immediate open for the holiday.

Yes, two on the dinette berth and easy 2+ up in the bow. But it’s so fast that I haven’t even slept on it yet. You have to come back to port to reset the king possession limit anyway.

Speaking of Alaska, just got back from 9 days on my North River. Did a 280 mile round trip in one day to Glacier Bay to see the Margerie Glacier and slayed kings and silvers off the coast at Yakobi Island. The pic where it looks like the boat is floating on a sheet of glass is at 41.5 MPH through Icy Strait.

Have you tried ripening in a bag? That’s what’s happening to mine, they rot before they turn colors. I’ve been picking them green because they still taste great me better green than rotten. Also, piles of tomatoes and blackberries with a pair of micro peen eggplants.

Etiuda peppers that wouldn’t turn orange, Juliet, San Marzano and cherry tomatoes, huckleberries, big ass blackberries, blackberry jelly and pasta pomodoro with fresh tomatoes and basil. I’m living off the fat of the land.

The nightshade huckleberries have redeemed themselves as a pretty damn decent jelly. One quart of berries to make 3 pretty concentrated 4 oz jars of jelly. I’m more of a jam guy, but these things are too packed with seeds for that. Next up will be blackberry jam or jelly because I’m getting a pint a day and they’re not even at their peak.

First kid graduated so I opened some hyped up MGP. I will admit it goes hard for 8 year MGP and that having grown kids feels weird.
-
They’re fine, don’t really like them fresh but they make a good jelly. Also picked some tomatoes and serranos for a weekend at the lake. Tomatoes are producing a crop every day, but it’s still going to be two weeks or so until I’m completely buried in 30 plants worth.
-
Blackberries are coming in strong. Also, these nightshade huckleberries are a total waste of time. No flavor and hard to pick.

Only place I’ve seen it on the shelf was in California. And by on the shelf I mean on the floor by the case.

I’ve been trying to grow peas and beans (non southern pea/black eyed) and I swear it’s impossible. Winter didn’t work, spring didn’t work, maybe I’ll try one more time in the late fall before I scrap it.
